Answer:
Explanation:
1. A declarative sentence:
- <u>I wake up early in the morning every day. </u>
It is just stating an idea or fact.
2. An imperative sentence.
- <u>Hand me the some bread.</u>
The sentence is making a request.
3. An interrogative sentence.
- <u>Can you leave me at the bus station, because I am late?</u>
This sentence is asking a question, thus it ends in a question mark. See that the verbs "can" and "am" are both in present tense, then they are consistent.
4. An exclamatory sentence.
- <u>Watch out for the car that stopped abruptly!</u>
You are conveying a strong feeling of urgency. The exclamatory sentences end with the exclamation mark: !
A further explanation:
Verb tense consistency refers to not changing the tense throughout a clause. Switching from one tense to another is a syntax error, that makes the clauses weird or even unintelligible.
